Chapter 356 Usopp's Shock: west Yan Has This Ability Too?!
"grandfather?!"
Ace was completely stunned when he saw the old man standing inside the house.
He never expected his grandfather to appear here. Could it be that he came here specifically to see him?
"You brat, are you surprised to see me?" Garp said with a laugh.
Ace immediately understood Garp's meaning; the other party had most likely come to the East Blue on purpose to see him.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Not really... just a pleasant surprise."
It was indeed a pleasant surprise, after all, he hadn't seen his grandfather for two years.
Sabo looked at Garp with some nervousness. After all, he was the second-in-command of the revolutionaries and an extremely dangerous element in the eyes of the World Government, so it was possible that the other party would directly attack him!
With that thought in mind, he placed his hand on the steel pipe behind him.
"Naval Hero, Kar...."
"bump!"
Before Sabo could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his head, so intense that tears streamed down his face.
"It hurts so much!!!"
"You brat, you should call me grandpa," Garp said irritably.
Sabo: ? ? ?
No, is that right?
When did he agree to become the other party's grandson?
"What, you're not convinced?" Garp said, brandishing his fist, which was as big as a sandbag.
This brat is Ace and Luffy's sworn brother, and they lived together for a while, so it's not unreasonable for them to call him grandpa.
Sabo:
Sabo was immediately silenced after glancing at Garp's fist.
Then he turned his head away and refused to look at Karp anymore.
Hmph, I won't stoop to the level of this old geezer.
But it was precisely because of Garp's actions that Sabo realized the other party wouldn't arrest him because of his identity.
This warmed Sabo's heart.
"Hmph, that old geezer is still the same."
As if he had just thought of something, Sabo's lips began to curl slightly upwards, but when he thought about how the other party had punched him and left a big bump on his head, he forcibly suppressed his smile.
Ace watched this scene with a smile, a look of nostalgia gradually appearing in his eyes.
The three brothers were beaten up by their grandfather together back then... So much time has passed in the blink of an eye.
Then, Ace said with some concern, "Grandpa, is it really okay for you to show up in the East Blue to meet me like this?"
His arrival in the East China Sea could not be kept secret from the navy, so will Grandpa's actions cause him any trouble?
Thinking of this, a look of worry appeared in Ace's eyes.
"Hahaha, I'm just an ordinary retired old man now, nobody will care," Garp said with a laugh. "Besides, nobody will know what I'm doing here."
Everyone here is trustworthy, so Garp isn't worried at all about the information being leaked.
As for the Navy Headquarters...
With Xiao He around, does he still need to worry about this kind of problem?
It's completely unnecessary!
Besides... even if the World Government found out, what could they do?
What's wrong with him coming to Donghai to see his fellow villagers?
"An ordinary old man..."
Sabo's lips twitched. What ordinary old man could take down the second-in-command of a revolutionary with a single punch?
Ace chuckled and said, "It's good that you're alright."
As long as it doesn't affect Grandpa.
"Alright, you two brats, have a good drink with your grandpa today," Garp said.
Having finally gotten this opportunity, he naturally wanted to have a good drink with these two rascals.
After all... who knows when we'll see each other again after today.
Sabo and Ace understood Garp's meaning, so they agreed without hesitation.
Just then, Dadan came out of the kitchen, a cigarette dangling from her lips, and said, "Ready to eat!"
Seeing this familiar scene, Sabo and Ace both smiled, then nodded vigorously and said:
"profound!"
Looking at the expressions of the two little devils, a look of kindness appeared on Dadan's face.
This feels so good...
Then, she gave Garp a somewhat disdainful look.
That jerk is such a spoilsport.
However, for the sake of the two little ones, let's let this guy stay for dinner.
Thinking of this, Dadan turned and walked towards the place where she was going to eat.
Seeing this, Garp secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then burst into laughter, saying, "Hahahaha, today I'm going to drink you all under the table!"
"Bring it on, Grandpa!"
"profound!"
The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.
In the highest center of power, the Five Elders were discussing matters concerning the Straw Hat Pirates.
"I never imagined that the Straw Hat Pirates would reunite after two years."
Looking at the intelligence report handed to him by his subordinates, Nasujuro Sei frowned and said, "It seems that the newspaper published by Blood Child Ninja two years ago was intended to convey information to the Straw Hat crew."
Now he understands why the Blood Child Ninja caused such a ruckus at the Holy Land two years ago; it was probably to send a message to the Straw Hat crew using that newspaper.
Recalling the letters written on the Blood-Eyed Ninja's arm, Nasujuro Sei nodded affirmatively.
They didn't know anything about the Straw Hat crew back then, so they didn't understand the meaning of that letter.
But now he understands.
The meaning of 3D(X)2Y is that the three-day meeting time has been cancelled and the meeting time has been changed to two years later!
It must be said that the way the Blood-Eyed Ninja conveyed information was indeed ingenious.
"That should be the case." Saint Pitt nodded and said, "Otherwise, there's no way to explain why he would publish that newspaper. Judging from the time the newspaper was published, that incident was premeditated, so he believes that Saint Nassuro's judgment is correct."
The others nodded in agreement, accepting the two's explanation.
Then, Satan said, "Judging from the information provided by Sentomaru, the Straw Hat crew has become much stronger."
Sentomaru brought four Pacifistas with him this time, but the Straw Hat Pirates' powerful crew members each took one down!
This strength has undergone a tremendous change!
"Got stronger?" Maz Saint said indifferently, "Nothing special."
While the Pacifistas are very convenient for pirates with bounties under a hundred million, they are somewhat inadequate against pirates with bounties of over a hundred million and considerable strength.
"That being said, it is still a problem," said Saint Satan.
After all... the Straw Hat Puppet Master ate that Devil Fruit!
"Just leave it to Smoker," Maz said. "Didn't he ask to go to the New World to hunt down the Straw Hat Pirates?"
"With his strength, taking down the Straw Hat Pirates shouldn't be a problem."
As a newly promoted general candidate, Smoker's strength is guaranteed.
Therefore, capturing the Straw Hat Pirates without the Blood-Eyed Ninja is no problem at all.
That's true.
The others nodded in agreement with Mazsan's statement.
Just then, Saint Vochuli snorted and said, "Hmph, if it weren't for that guy Kuma, the Straw Hat Pirates would have been dealt with two years ago."
"What's the point of saying this now?" Piet Saint said helplessly.
After all, they can't change what happened two years ago.
Not only can we not change it, but we also cannot know what the bear's motives were.
Thinking of this, Piet Saint sighed silently.
Then, he looked at Satan Saint and said, "I remember the bear had a self-destruct device on it, right?"
"Yes, I've already pressed it," Saint Satan nodded and said.
After confirming that he could not find the bear, he pressed the bear's self-destruct switch without hesitation.
What they can't have, the enemy can't have either!
"That's good," Piet Saint nodded and said.
Although he didn't really care about Kuma's life or death, Kuma was, after all, the property of the World Government, so it was better to destroy him.
Then, Pitt Saint picked up the information about the Straw Hat Pirates from the table and said, "You guys think... who is this Wood-Wood Fruit user?"
"You're worried he's the Blood Child Ninja, aren't you?" Saint Satan said slowly, "But your worries are unnecessary; the Blood Child Ninja is already dead."
"But we never got his body."
Hearing his old friend's words, Satan's expression turned somewhat grim.
He wasn't angry with the other party, but he felt it was a huge loss not to get the Blood Child Ninja's corpse.
"Don't worry, Sakazuki sent people to investigate immediately," Nasujuro said. "This person is from the West Blue, started operating on the seas about half a year ago, and only recently joined the Straw Hat Pirates."
"So it can't be that person."
Not only are there some discrepancies in the information, but most importantly... their appearances are very different!
At least he didn't remember the Blood-Eyed Ninja being that tall.
"No, isn't it?"
Piet Saint thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's good."
"However... to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, I think it's better to kill them all."
After all... only the dead truly settle down!
"Let's see if Smoker can stop the Straw Hat crew," Satan said.
If Smoker can corner the Straw Hat crew, he can take them down!
As for whether Smoker can do it?
Don't be ridiculous. A powerful navy that can take down the legendary pirate, World Destroyer Wald, head-on is definitely capable of wiping them out!
"If necessary, we can also send a general over," Nasujiro Sei said.
After all, the Straw Hat crew were the culprits who killed the Celestial Dragons two years ago, so sending an admiral to deal with them is not unreasonable at all.
This time, the others didn't object; instead, they nodded in agreement.
Putting aside what the Straw Hat Pirates did, just based on Straw Hat Luffy's Devil Fruit ability, he deserves to die.
Although the Nika Fruit has never awakened, to avoid unnecessary trouble... let's just say Straw Hat Luffy dies!
Thinking of this, the eyes of the five old men began to gleam with a fierce light.
We absolutely must not allow the Nika Fruit to awaken again!
"By the way, what's the deal with that woman named Perona?" Sacred Vochury asked. "Isn't she one of Moria's men? Why did she join the Straw Hat Pirates?"
"Perhaps Moria conveyed some message to this woman before he died," Saint Satan said. "Like asking him to join the Straw Hat Pirates or something."
After all, Moria had a good relationship with the Straw Hat Pirates two years ago, so it's possible that he made such a choice.
"Is that so..."
Pittor thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "Then let Smoker capture this guy alive."
"Do you think Moria taught those things to her?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out."
The others paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded and said:
"Reconsider."
"The light is basically gone."
Looking up at Nami high above, he said, "I feel like I've completely left the human world behind."
This feeling made her feel uneasy, as if she might die at any moment.
Hearing Nami's words, Usopp subconsciously swallowed and asked, "Are we really going to be able to get back to the surface safely?"
Before setting off, he was filled with excitement, but after sailing underwater for a while, his whereabouts became increasingly worrying.
"What's wrong, scared?" west Yan said with a smile, looking at Usopp.
"Damn it, I'm not scared at all!" Usopp immediately raised his head and said, "I'm a brave warrior of the sea!"
west Yan:
Why is there so much sweat on your face?
"It's alright, Usopp," Nico Robin said calmly.
"oh?!"
Upon hearing Robin's words, Usopp's eyes immediately lit up.
Then he said, "Are you trying to say that we can definitely get back to the sea?"
"No, what I meant was... even if we were to perish at sea, it wouldn't be too painful," Nico Robin said with a smile. "Because we Devil Fruit users would be instantly killed by the water pressure the moment we entered the deep sea."
Usopp:
Can you please not say something so terrible with a smile, you jerk?!
Chopper looked at Nico Robin with a look of horror. Was it really okay to say something like that at this time?
He was so scared!!!
Having observed their reactions, west Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm here."
Even if the coating is broken, he is confident that he can save his companions in the deep sea.
"We're counting on you, Xiyan!" the two said, hugging Xiyan's legs.
As Devil Fruit users, they were powerless to resist in the ocean and could only rely on this legendary ninja.
Seeing the two clinging to west Yan's legs, Nami shook her head helplessly, then turned her gaze to the scenery ahead.
He said, "I never imagined that the tree roots could extend so deep..."
They must have dived at least several thousand meters by now, and yet these tree roots are still there?
That's an exaggeration.
"After all, the Sabaody Archipelago is made up of huge mangrove forests," west Yan said.
The mangrove forests are so vast that it's possible for the roots to extend for thousands of meters.
"What a breathtaking natural spectacle!" Brooke exclaimed. "My eyes practically popped out of my head!"
"ah"
"Although I don't have eyes that can be shocked, yo ho ho ho ho!"
"I've seen it once," Zoro said.
Sanji: ? ? ?
"Don't say things like that, you idiot who got on the wrong ship!" Sanji said, opening his shark-like mouth. "I'm actually feeling touched!"
Zoro paused for a moment after hearing this, then calmly glanced at Sanji and said, "How dare a mere number seven teach number one a lesson?"
Sanji:
"You bastard, why would you say something like that?!"
Zoro didn't say a word, but just looked at Sanji with a smile on his face.
That expression was as if to say: With your ranking, I'll eat your food for the rest of my life.
Sanji, having read Zoro's expression, immediately fell silent.
Then, he angrily shouted, "I'll fight you to the death!"
With a furious expression, Sanji charged straight at Zoro.
And so, the two of them started banging and fighting on the deck again.
Perona's eyelids twitched at the sight.
Shouldn't we be quietly enjoying the scenery at this time? After all, opportunities for such underwater adventures are rare.
"Hey, there seems to be something behind the tree," Usopp said, leaning closer to the edge of the coating.
"Yes, it's a big fish!" Chopper exclaimed.
A fish with a single scale bigger than the Thousand Sunny... That's terrifying!
"It's quite good." Mei flew to the two of them and carefully examined the large fish in the distance. "However, it's still far inferior to the sea kings that Xiyan catches."
"Xiyan captures sea kings?"
Usopp was stunned for a moment, then looked at Merry in shock and said, "What do you mean by 'Western Flame capturing Sea Kings'?"
Can Xiyan capture sea kings?
"It means exactly what it says," Mei said. "Xi Yan used his abilities to control several sea kings."
"My favorite character is the husky."
A smile appeared on Little Mary's face at the thought of that silly guy sticking his tongue out at her.
I must say, that guy was really funny.
"west Yan has such abilities?" Perona asked, looking at west Yan in shock.
Then this guy's naval combat ability is quite terrifying.
"Yes," Mary nodded and said.
"We used Sea Kings to get to Impel Down back then," Luffy said.
Recalling those moments, a smile appeared on Luffy's face.
That was truly a thrilling adventure.
"The Undersea Prison..."
Franky asked curiously, "So, before you two went to Marine Headquarters, you also went to this pirate hell that's been said to have remained unconquered for eight hundred years?"
"Yes."
west Yan nodded and said, "Back then, in order to rescue Ace, the two of us went to Impel Down first, and then went to Marine Headquarters."
Hearing west Yan's nonchalant description, the others were immediately silenced.
Although it was just a single sentence, they could still imagine how terrifying the danger it contained was.
However, they didn't feel any fear; instead, they felt a sense of envy towards west Yan.
After all... this guy is willing to go to places like that with Luffy!
"I wonder how Ace is doing now," Luffy said with some emotion.
"You'll find out when we get to the New World," west Yan said.
If they really want to see Ace, they can take the initiative to contact him.
This time, Luffy didn't say anything, but nodded and accepted west Yan's words.
Then, Luffy walked over to the coating, drooling as he looked at the school of fish outside, and said, "So many fish! They all look delicious."
As they were talking, Luffy suddenly leaped onto the coating, looking as if he was about to crawl out, leaving Chopper completely dumbfounded.
"I have plenty of edible-looking things here too," Zoro said, drawing his longsword again. "Watch me chop them down!"
"bump!"
"bump!"
With two muffled thuds, Luffy and Zoro were knocked to the ground.
"You bastards, what are you two trying to do?!" Usopp roared, his shark mouth agape. "Are you trying to break the coating?!"
"Yeah, right!" Chopper roared, opening his shark mouth wide, "What if the bubble pops?!"
"Don't do it a second time!"
Although west Yan said he could guarantee they wouldn't die in the sea, if the bubble bursts, the pirate ship might be destroyed!
Therefore, they absolutely will not allow this to happen!
"Nami, let's go over the important points before these guys do anything stupid," Sanji said. "Otherwise, it'll be too late once they actually cause trouble."
"That's true."
Nami nodded, took out a document that Rayleigh had prepared for her in advance, and said, "Uncle Rayleigh just gave me an explanation, so I..."
"ah!!!"
"She's a genuine beauty!"
Seeing Nami's smiling face, Sanji's nose started bleeding profusely.
Then, the man, like a cannonball, slammed directly into the coating above, leaving his companions completely dumbfounded.
"Hello!"
"Sanji!"
Why can this guy fly up when he spurts blood from his nose, you bastard!
"It's popping! The bubble's about to burst!"
"wave"
As soon as Chopper finished speaking, Sanji broke through the bubble and flew into the deep sea thousands of meters below.
west Yan:
This guy is a bit outrageous.
"This bubble is incredible," Nico Robin exclaimed. "On one hand, it has the durability to withstand the immense pressure of the deep sea, and on the other hand, it can be burst by objects..."
"That's really surprising."
Franky: —
Is now the time to lament about this kind of thing?
"Hey, save Sanji!" Merry exclaimed excitedly, "Otherwise, Sanji will be killed by the pressure in the deep sea!"
That depth of several thousand meters is simply beyond the human body's ability to withstand.
"Does this guy look like he's about to die?" west Yan retorted.
Even after falling into the deep sea, this guy's eyes are still heart-shaped.
However, west Yan didn't really ignore this idiot. After saying that, west Yan rushed out of the bubble and arrived at Sanji's side at an extremely fast speed. He grabbed him and returned to the Thousand Sunny.
After giving Sanji a quick check-up, west Yan's lips twitched as he said, "This idiot seems to have lost too much blood..."
Nami:
Is it her fault?
"It's okay, I still have Sanji's blood type in reserve," Chopper said.
As he spoke, he quickly ran to his room, took out all the medical supplies, and then began to replenish Sanji's blood.
After finishing this task, Chopper wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "It'll be fine once the blood is replenished."
"So... what's wrong with Sanji?!" Usopp said, somewhat exasperated.
Why do I get a nosebleed just from seeing Na Mei?
"How pitiful..."
Looking at Sanji lying motionless on the ground, Brook said, "I wonder what Sanji has gone through these past two years to turn him into this..."
If this continues... wouldn't he spit blood and die if he saw his beloved mermaid?
I'm really worried about his future.
"Sanji, that guy..."
Looking at Sanji with his eyes closed, Xi Yan said with a complicated expression, "He's been spending the last two years with transvestites..."
Everyone:
Hearing west Yan's words, some unsuspecting people were immediately silenced.
Then, a hint of pity appeared in their eyes as they looked at Sanji.
"What a pathetic guy."
Zoro: —
Speaking of which... am I being too harsh on Sanji?
For a moment, Zoro even had a doubt.
"No...don't mention this, you bastard!" Sanji woke up with a shiver, looking frantic. "I don't want to remember that nightmare!!!"
That was an indescribable hell, you bastard!
Seeing Sanji's reaction, everyone's expressions became even more complicated.
Poor child.
"To prevent this guy from actually bleeding to death..." west Yan stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then looked at Perona and said, "Perona, next time use Negative Ghost to make him behave."
"it is good."
Perona did not refuse, but nodded and accepted west Yan's proposal.
"Miss Perona's..."
As if he had just remembered something, Sanji's eyes turned red again, and his expression became increasingly excited.
"Now!" west Yan shouted.
"Negative ghosts!"
Perona shouted and then released a Negative Ghost that struck Sanji.
The next moment.
"I...I'm such a scumbag..." Sanji said, his face ashen.
"It works!"
Chopper's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Could this be a way to cure Sanji?!"
If that's the case, then please ask Perona to give Sanji a treatment package.
At least with Perona around, this guy won't die from blood loss.
Usopp:
Are you devils?
At least respect the patient's wishes, you bastard!
"The method is somewhat..."
west Yan coughed lightly, then said matter-of-factly, "But at least it allows him to live a good life, doesn't it!"
Usopp paused for a moment, thinking... that seemed to make sense.
However, this would be terrible for Sanji.
Usopp glanced at Sanji, who was still looking dejected, and a hint of pity appeared in his eyes. Poor kid.
"Alright, let's continue explaining the coating process," Nico Robin said.
"Huh?!"
Usopp looked at Nico Robin in surprise. Was this the time to be talking about something so serious?
There's still someone lying on the ground.
"That's true."
Na Mei said, "To prevent these two idiots from doing anything irrational, we should really explain it now."
As they were talking, Nami took out the instruction sheet Rayleigh had given her again and read it carefully.
She then said, "Simply put, this coating is similar to the bubbles in the Sabaody Archipelago; they are special bubbles that can be stretched to a certain extent."
"To put it extremely, even attacking the sea monsters that are attacking the pirate ship with guns or cannons will not cause the bubble to burst."
After she finished speaking, a look of emotion appeared on Nami's face.
It's truly amazing that such a special bubble can allow humans to descend to a depth of 10,000 meters underwater.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Mary exclaimed, her eyes wide. "Does that mean the bubble won't pop at all?"
If that's really the case, then they don't need to worry about security issues.
"Not exactly."
"How do you break it?" Usopp asked curiously.
He needs to figure out what causes the bubble to burst so he can effectively stop those two troublemaking idiots.
Thinking of this, Usopp glanced at Luffy and Zoro, who were muttering to themselves, and nodded to himself.
That's right, it's those two idiots!
"It seems like it won't be able to hold up if multiple holes are punctured at once."
After Nami finished speaking, she thought for a moment and then continued, "For example... if a Sea King bites you, Bubble will basically be doomed."
Upon hearing Nami's words, Usopp and Chopper's faces turned green.
Wouldn't that mean they'd drown at sea?!
Before they could say anything, Nami continued, "Not only that, if the pirate ship itself crashes into rocks or a trench and is damaged, cracks in the mast or hull will also cause the bubbles to burst, and then there's no saving it either."
"In general, pay close attention to marine life and structures, and avoid doing anything unnecessary inside the bubbles."
That should basically solve the problem.
After finishing speaking, Nami put the explanation away and then looked at the people in front of her, saying, "Now you understand, right?"
"Understood." Usopp nodded, then laughed loudly, "Looks like this bubble is even stronger than I thought! That's right, that's right!"
Chopper and Usopp exchanged a glance, then burst into laughter together.
As long as it's safe, there's no problem!
"Don't be so happy yet," Nami said. "You know, 7% of the ships heading to Fishman Island have perished at sea, so we still need to be extra careful."
Usopp:
Chopper:
Upon hearing Nami's words, the two men's expressions changed once again.
"What on earth happened...?" Chopper asked in horror.
Why did so many ships sink to the bottom of the sea?!
Why?!
"They must have encountered a sea king in the deep sea," west Yan said, stroking his chin. "After all, it's quite normal to encounter sea kings that are over a thousand meters long in the deep sea."
If you're not lucky enough, you might encounter a sea monster that's several kilometers long in the deep sea.
After recalling the big shots he had encountered two years ago, west Yan nodded affirmatively.
"That's even more terrifying..."
A sea king thousands of meters tall... it could definitely swallow their Thousand Sunny whole in one gulp!
As if they had just realized something, their expressions immediately changed.
"What are you afraid of?" west Yan said with a smile. "Isn't there me here?"
Even if we encounter a big one, there's no need to be afraid, okay? We can just take it down as an extra treat.
Usopp and Chopper were silent for a moment after hearing this, then grabbed Xiyan's legs and said, "Xiyan, please!"
"Please, you absolutely must defeat the Sea Kings!"
Seeing their expressions, west Yan smiled helplessly.
"Leave it to me."
"Speaking of which, aren't we moving a little too slowly?" Perona said.
She originally thought that after entering the ocean, she would be able to dive to a depth of 10,000 meters very quickly.
As a result, the speed was as slow as a tortoise.
"After all, this is the deep sea," Nami said, "so it's normal for the descent speed to be slow."
The situation underwater is much more complicated than at sea, so it's better to take it slow.
At least... that way you won't drown at sea because of being too reckless!
This time, Perona didn't say anything, but nodded and accepted Nami's explanation.
